Here let us pause: oh, would the soul might ever

Achieve its immortality in youth,

When nothing yet hath damped its high endeavor

After the starry energy of truth!

Here let us pause, and for a moment sever

This gleam of sunshine from the sad unruth

That sometime comes to all, for it is good

To lengthen to the last a sunny mood. 280
